A. Continue with the same. Only 6 ,10, 14 wks Vaccination cause fever if u choose painfull option for ur baby. it doesn't cause fever as such due to vaccine component In triple vaccine (DTwP,) wP component cause fever which is whole cell pertussis component If u choose painless option for ur baby, It contain DTaP component ie acellular component(aP) which doesn't cause fever. Both painless and painful Vaccines are equally good and effective.

A. Painful and painless both has same effect. Painless is better as there won't be any fever, swelling or irritation. Painful will have fever and body pains. However painful and painless both are effective and same just cost wise. It differs.
